If you only read one story today about the nightmarish journalism shithole (in aggregate, not particular!) that is Newsweek, let it be John Koblin's excellent piece in WWD. Which part do you like best? Tina Brown doing a phone interview on the "quiet car?" The litany of pissed-off quotes from the staff? (Or, related, the literally impossible assertion that 94% of Newsweek readers don't read the New York Times?) Actually, the most devastating, damning element of the entire story: the photo of Newsweek's Regis Philbin cover. Yowza.

The new editor of Muscle & Fitness Hers is Mona Muresan, a Romanian competitive bodybuilder. Funny, since magazine editing and bodybuilding are both activities which require all of your time. Good luck!
